Historic moment indeed but I think Trump is being played for a fool. I think that China are the puppet masters behind all this. Kim will find another mountain to hide his nukes in then invite Trump to do an inspection to prove that he’s being a good boy which in turn will give Kim the leverage he needs to tell Trump to move his forces out of South Korea. Trump won’t have any choice but to comply in he wants to maintain relations with North Korea. Trump pulling out of South Korea gives China exactly what they want because everyone knows the US presence in South Korea is nothing to do with North Korea, it’s all about keeping tabs on China.
^ This.
It will be interesting to watch how it plays out. Mike Pompeo is not a stupid man and has a lot of military and government experience under his belt. I’m pretty sure that he will have already realised the above could be the “game” well before any of us and already has a plan in place to counter any such shennanigans.
I do also think there’s probably an element of Kim genuinely wanting to turn over a new leaf and drag his country out of the dark ages. His two neighbouring countries are very technologically advanced and I can imagine that he fancies some of that for his own people.
Knowing Trump though, he’ll probably [zb] it all up by the end of the week by making some stupid tweet.
The word is that when Trump went behind closed doors for the official handover from Obama it was either a different ‘Trump’ that came out or it’s the real Trump but he and his family were threatened by the deep state.Either way the Americans voted Trump and still got Hilary although he obviously has to make it look good and not too obvious.So no wall,Putin is now the problem again and Macron is the solution,the 2nd amendment heading for history on a slow gradual basis,and appeasement of China. 
A bit like Italy voting for an anti immigration government.But which will for some reason still allow in as many at a time as the Coastguard can fit on a Coast Guard ship while diverting the rest to Spain.When it’s obvious that the election deal was supposed to be that the Coast Guard escorts them back to where they started out from and if they and Macron etc doesn’t like it tough.
